One of the only climbing gyms I go to frequently. Spacious, tons of climbing walls and routes, well-maintained, and kind staff. Also very inclusive of many kinds of people. I like ABP Springdale because the routes are fun and unlike other gyms doesn't just turn into crimps-only after you hit V3. Being able to do V6 black routes frequently and not have it be graded high solely because it's crimps-only like other gyms is nice. Soft grading and diverse set routes means it's easier to see strength and technique levels (in my opinion), and you don't get clumped together at the same level as someone who just started climbing but can brute-strength their way past routes with no technique.
